What is the best way to install Samba
Ok I have my debian machine connected to a XP machine through a router. I have made several attemps to install samba using apt-get and I have modified the smb.conf on several occations. My first thought was to start with a fresh reinstall of Samba so that I could start with the original smb.conf file, but a simple apt-get remove -> apt-get install does not replace the original smb.conf file. I am lost on this one. Questions, Do I need a static IP? and if so How? How do I start with a fresh installation of Samba? How can I find out what I have installed using apt-get? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
